Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...


Hi, I have a few Shunyata CX powercords (anaconda cx and king cobra cx). Has anyone done a detailed comparison? What are your thoughts as to the differences?

I did just replace my Hydra vray II with a Hydra Triton, and that was a nice improvement, in clarity, naturalness, ease and dynamics. It was one of those upgrades that once it goes in...wasn't even worth going back to compare...

Thanks in advance

How does the new Ztron Cobra AC power cable compare to the older CX series, especially the Python CX? I have the Python CX right now and it sounds pretty darn good as the main power cable for an Aesthetix IO. I need a good cable to power an Isotek 8 way power isolation strip which will power some other components besides the Aesthetix IO.

Thanks in advance,

Vhiner,

Thank you for the update. After reading some preliminary reports out in the "field" from a few other forums and your update, I am led to believe that the new Zitron Cobra is a much better performing cable than the previous Python cables. Now, the question is where to purchase these newer products. I found only one web site so far. Any suggestions?
Thnx.

It looks like the older CX series of power cables are being bought as soon as they are listed for sale on several websites. I missed out on a Python CX because I thought about it for a day, dang it. I guess you snooze you lose. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone who owns the newer Z series can share the specs? I heard that one of the main differences in the newer cables and the older CX cables is the EFCC (electric field compensation circuit), which by itself, is amazing. I am wondering if the AC plug is Shunyata's own SR-ZP plug and IEC, and did the internal CDA 101 copper on the older CX series carry over to the new Z series? Also, are the number of conductors the same as the older CX series or different? Thanks.
